Some interesting behavior in the 2018 $1M-buy-in One Drop

Posted on August 3, 2018 by Zachary Elwood — Get a free poker tells course here

I recently appeared on Steve Barton’s Heads-up Poker Podcast, talking about tells in a 2018 Big One for One Drop hand. The hand was submitted by a listener to that podcast, and I was glad they submitted it because I haven’t been watching much WSOP coverage this summer and I might have missed it otherwise.

The hand features a pre-flop shove from millionaire Rick Salomon (also known as the guy who filmed the Paris Hilton sex-tape and allegedly released it without Ms. Hilton’s permission) and some interesting behavior from him.

Here’s a PokerNews article I wrote about that hand.
